Route 133 is a historic and heritage road of the Estrie and Montérégie regions in the province of Quebec, with north/south orientation and located on the eastern shore of the Richelieu River. Its northern terminus is in Sorel-Tracy, on the south shore of the Saint Lawrence River. The southern terminus is in Saint-Armand at the United States border with Vermont, close to Highgate Springs, where it continues southward past the Highgate Springs–St. Armand/Philipsburg Border Crossing as Interstate 89. Prior to the 1970s, the portion between the international border and Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu was known as Route 7, which served as a continuation of US 7.

Route 133 is designated as historic and called Chemin des Patriotes in honour of the Patriot Rebellion of 1837–1838.

The stretch between the US border and Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, where Autoroute 35 begins, is relatively busy, as it provides the main link between Boston and Montreal. Construction to extend Autoroute 35 south of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu to the US border by-passing Route 133 started in 2009. Construction was slated to be finished in 2017 but will continue until 2023.
